Advanced Funeral Planning

Today the average cost funeral service in South Carolina is often between $6400.00 and $7000.00. This average price includes the funeral home's services, the casket, the outer burial container, as well as miscellaneous costs such as flowers, obituary notices, death certificates and honorariums, etc.

Certainly you can spend much less than this or much more depending on the choices that you make. It is important to do what feels right for you and your family. Do not feel as if you must spend beyond or below your means (as sometimes happens when there are no guidelines for your family to follow). Advance Funeral Planning will help to avoid over-spending or under-spending by your family.

Families who plan funeral arrangements in advance select a plan that "Freezes' the price of the funeral at today's cost and protects your family from the impact that inflation has on the costs of funeral goods and services.

Here's an example. A $6000 funeral expense today could cost as much as $7900 within the next 7-10 years due to inflation. In 15 years, that expense could be as high as $13000.

It is also important to note that many of our Advance Funeral Plans are exempt from Medicaid/Medicare qualifications and are tax free.

At Elmore-Hill-McCreight Funeral Home and Crematory, we are proud to offer affordable ways to fund your advance funeral plans that allow you to lock in the cost of your funeral selections at today's prices. Choose a single-payment option or an easy and affordable monthly payment plan.

It only takes few minutes to help you to determine what would be the best course of action for you and your family. You are under no obligation and our Funeral Cost Analysis is free.

You have already begun to take those important steps towards making a difficult time much easier for your loved ones and family. We encourage you to allow us to help you complete the pre-arrangement process. It will be one of the kindest and most compassionate gifts that you'll ever give your family.
